oh and i'll just go ahead and warn you now that anything you post that implies that america might not be the best place on earth by any measure whatsoever has a very good chance of being sent to chit chat by the overzealous mods in this forum who start having convulsions at the notion that the USA is being outperformed in any way whatsoever, and then try to tell people that the post wasn't economically relevant ... and the barrage of flaming you will receive from american supremacists who foam at the mouth at the suggestion that america isn't the best place on earth

80% of all posts on this board are in some fashion "anti-American" as it is, so yet another "Europeans are better than Americans" thread is of no surprise. Why you guys don't form your own "Euro-Trading" board is quite puzzling. Most of you (Euros, in particular) have already, somewhat successfully, turned this rather mediocre trading site into a "capitalism is evil," "socialism rules," "America sucks" message board anyway...so, cheers on a job well done.

I also find it amusing that Europeans always have to lump many of their countries together in order to constantly (I would argue "obsessively") compare themselves to us. For example: "Well, you stupid Americans might have a larger GDP than my country and lead us in technology, but when you take my country and add a dozen others to it - we're better than you."
